I hold a PhD from North Carolina State University’s Communication, Rhetoric, and Digital Media (CRDM) program where my expertise is in materialist and digital media studies, digital humanities, and cultural studies of technology and race. These areas of expertise inform my research and teaching interests, which, broadly sketched, are Black studies, affective labor, popular culture, urban spaces and temporal flows, and the nexus between sports and science and technology. Currently, I am a DISCO (Design, Inquiry, Speculation, Collaboration, Optimism) Network Postdoctoral Research Fellow where I work at Purdue University’s Humanities and Technoscience (HAT) Lab.
